About Yourself: I'm a Civil Engineer so I work long hours but I love to relax by watching my fish which are so theraputic. Started when I was a kid with a bowl and a goldfish and have built up ever since. Now, 20 years on I'm still as mad as ever and have just moved onto keeping Cichlids and i'm loving it. I'm still learning about cycling the tank and feeding habits and I would be grateful for any comments or advice you can all give.
